League leaders Zanaco ‘s away game against Roan United at Kafubu Stadium in Luanshya today was abandoned after assistant referee Mark Mutale was hurt by an object from the stands.
Mutale sustained a deep cut on the crown of his head after an unknown fan struck the second assistant referee from Chingola in the 74th minute in the match.
The game was scoreless up to that point and match commissioner Francis Mwamba of Chililabombwe decided to call-off the match as Mutale could not continue with this duties.
A report from Faz over the incident is being awaited this week.
And Zanaco suffered another blow earlier in the first half after the leagues top scorer on 20 goals Patrick Kabamba limped off with an injury.
Meanwhile, Zanaco’s lead at the top has been cut from 7 to 4 points after Zesco beat Konkola Blades 2-1 away at Konkola Stadium in Chililabombwe.
